The 30L15 is a low impedance high gain double triode. The low voltage high current suggests a low noise design, used in the front end stages in a television tuner.

The other 30L15 in the museum has a different construction. This one has a perforated outer screen as well as an inter-section screening plate.

The thin glass tube envelope is 20 mm in diameter and excluding the B9A base pins it measures 47 mm long.
